What we need as writers is a whole-brain approach to planning our year (and our writing projects) that is visual, flexible, doable, emotional and takes advantage of our strengths and tendencies. This two-hour class will show you how to do things a little differently so you are more focused, balanced, excited, hopeful, and committed to your goals in 2026. We’ll work through the complimentary year planner you will receive and put our plans down in writing to get a head start on the coming year. This is an interactive, hands-on, make-it-happen session that sets you up to create space for writing, visualize your success, and build a plan that pushes you past the things that may have held you back in previous years.

The evening will include drum healing, a hawthorn plant meditation, and time for community connection, creating a grounded and supportive container for inner listening and renewal.
